Halloween will be creeping up soon. It affords us the opportunity to introduce a whole new vocabulary of words that are used in Halloween themed writing.

I particularly love the first one because it is an anthology of Halloween poems for children and it really models the use of literary devices in writing. And the cute monsters are a plus!
